Disclaimer: I don't own anything
Author's note: Well my parents have gone out and I have the computer all to myself. Heh heh. I was bored and wrote this. Just a little thing, probably a oneshot unless I can make a story out of it somehow. Enjoy!
"Achooo," Susan sneezed and let out a groan, she didn't particularly enjoy being ill. It just wasn't fair that Reed and Johnny had already recovered from the Flu and Ben was pretty lucky he didn't catch it. Ben seemed to be immune to everything, even before the accident aboard Victor's spacecraft.
Reed poked his head around the bedroom door, "Not getting any better huh," he said to her as he sat down on the bed beside her. "No, and today is the second Saturday of the month," she wailed. Reed furrowed his brow, "It's shopping day," she explained. "Well you don't need to worry about that," Reed said unconvincingly, "Me, Ben and Johnny will do the shopping," Sue wasn't convinced but knew it was better than nothing. "Okay, but don't forget anything important. Oh, and if Johnny tries to bail I give Ben permission to clobber … on second thoughts maybe not. Just take away his PS2." She said with a weak smile before falling asleep. Reed brushed his fiancée's hair out of her face and gave her a kiss on the forehead before leaving the room and shutting the door behind him.
As he closed the door he turned around and almost ran into Ben and Johnny.
"That was a joke right?" Johnny asked with a serious face, "Yeah, please don't tell me you told her that we would all go shopping, TOGETHER!" Ben said, finding it hard to control his temper at that moment. Reed cringed and tried to slip past Johnny, it didn't take a genius to know that getting past Ben would be almost impossible. Johnny blocked his route, "Dude, I got things to do today. So whether it's a joke or not I'm leaving," the blonde boy stated.
"Well it's not," Reed said nervously "Just do this for Sue not me," he pleaded as he pressed himself flat against the door. "Reed!" Ben bellowed as he clenched his fists. "Guys is everything alright," Sue called at the sound of Ben's angry voice. "Everything's just fine," Reed said as he tried to cover up the panic in his voice. "Well, like I said, I got things to do so I'll see you guys later. Don't forget my popcorn." Johnny said as he grabbed his jacket and headed towards the elevator.
Ben spun around and glared at Johnny, "You ain't going anywhere matchstick," Ben said menacingly. Johnny laughed, "Watch me," he said as he pressed the button and waited for the elevator to arrive. "Why you-" Ben said as he started towards The Human Torch but he was stopped when Reed stretched his neck to whisper something in his ear. Ben grinned evilly at what Reed said, Johnny panicked slightly before putting on another cocky smile. Ben walked out of sight and into the living room followed by Reed and a curious Johnny. Ben walked up to the television and bent down and picked a thin rectangular black box, which he didn't recognise at first but then it dawned on him and his smile faded. "Noooo! I mean, you wouldn't dare,"
"I would, a Playstation doesn't mean anything to me Tinkerbell, nor does it to Reed or Sue," Ben said evilly.
"Go on then," Johnny said with his trademark smile, sure he had the situation under his control. Ben raised the playstation2 above his head and was about to smash it when Johnny flamed on and dived for his games console. He landed on the sofa with the PS2 in his hands; he gave Ben a triumphant smile. Ben sniggered, "you were right Reed," he said to his best friend. Johnny looked at the two smiling men in front of him suspiciously, "right about what?" he asked, still holding the play station tightly. Reed let out a laugh, "I had a theory that if Ben did what he did you would engulf yourself in flames and take you game from him and due to the heat you would melt it yourself," he said with a smile. Johnny's eyes opened wide and he looked down and his beloved PS2, sure enough it had melted just enough for it to be ruined, Johnny returned himself to normal and glared at Reed. "You wait till Sue hears this," he said threateningly. "Look at the plus side," Ben said, enjoying watching Johnny lose for once "at least you had your suit on underneath your clothes," he said before bursting out laughing. Johnny gave Reed and Ben another glare before going off to find some clothes to wear.
